Well, it is quite big, I grepped on "gpu-viv" to start :
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" [label="gpu-viv-bin-mx6q
1:3.10.17-1.0.2-hfp-r0\n/run/media/jm/SSD_JM/Projets/veobox3/poky/meta-fsl-arm/recipes-graphics/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q_3.10.17-1.0.2-hfp.bb"]
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "virtual/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "mesa"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libxext"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "virtual/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-compilerlibs"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "virtual/libc"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libxfixes"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libxdamage"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "virtual/libx11"
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libdrm" [style=dashed]
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libclc-mx6" [style=dashed]
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "libglslc-mx6" [style=dashed]
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" [style=dashed]
"gpu-viv-bin-mx6q" -> "gpu-viv-bin-mx6q-dev" [style=dashed]


If you want everything, I will paste it, but not sure it would be useful ?
